Abstract In this paper, we study the Lie symmetries and the conserved quantities of non-holonomic mechanical systems with unilateral Vacco constraints. We give the conditions and the form of conserved quantities due to the Lie symmetries of the systems, and present the inverse problem of the above problem, i.e. finding the corresponding Lie symmetry transformation according to a given integral of the system. Finally, we give an example to illustrate the application of the results.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
